Every year, millions of families across the United States deal with the frustration of head lice — and if you live in Arizona, you’re not alone.
📊 National Snapshot
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 6–12 million children between the ages of 3 and 11 get head lice each year in the U.S.
While lice are most common in kids, adults aren’t immune — parents, teachers, and childcare providers account for an estimated 1–2 million additional cases annually.
🌵 Arizona by the Numbers
Arizona health officials and school districts report that head lice outbreaks are most common from August through October, when children return to school after summer break.
On average, Arizona sees an estimated 30,000–40,000 new lice cases annually, with the highest rates in Maricopa and Pima Counties.
The state’s warm climate and high student population density in urban areas contribute to faster lice spread during peak seasons.
💡 What You Should Know
- Lice don’t jump or fly — they spread through direct head-to-head contact.
- They are not a sign of poor hygiene — anyone can get them.
- Regular scalp checks, especially before and after school breaks, are key to prevention.
